Patient Reviews
Oct 20, 2021
Consultation yesterday for hip replacement and could not have been more pleased with his professionalism, knowledge and bedside manner. He listened and answered all of my questions and I never felt rushed. I am surprised that health grade does not show as "frequently treated" hip replacements as he stated that 40% of his surgeries are hip replacements.
